2008 Littorai Mays Canyon Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

13.8%
alc., $65.
·Moderately dark reddish-purple robe. Very expressive forward
nose that is constantly changing in the glass offering scents of spiced
Bing cherries, alpine strawberries, cola, mocha and toast. Crisp and
delicious on the palate featuring darker red cherries and berries with just
the right amount of oak and spice in the background. A cherry delight on
the bright finish. A kick-ass Pinot that displays the typically luscious Russian
River fruit beautifully. Can drink it now, but will further reward patience. Flat-out
great the next day from a previously opened and re-corked bottle.Reviewed December 14, 2010WINERY&nbsp»ARTICLE&nbsp»

2005 Littorai Mays Canyon Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

13.7% alc..
·Moderate reddish purple color in
the glass. The nose offers medicinal aromas along with hints of acetone, white flower bouquet and plum.
Fading and dry dark red berry and cherry fruit with noticeable tannin and barrel overlay. Still juicy, but not very
charming. Drink up.Reviewed February 13, 2017WINERY&nbsp»ARTICLE&nbsp»

2005 Littorai Mays Canyon Vineyard Russian River Valley Chardonnay

13.9% alc..
·Moderate golden
yellow color in the glass. Bouquet of grilled lemon, smoky toast, old book and woodshed. Delicious flavors of
lemon curd, well-ripened pineapple, dried apricot, apple and Nutella. Slightly creamy in the mouth with
impeccable balance and some finishing length. Also fantastic in more of an Old World style. Drink now to 2020.Reviewed February 13, 2017WINERY&nbsp»ARTICLE&nbsp»

2005 Littorai Mays Canyon Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

13.7% alc., $65.
·Darker
fruits from start to finish with prominent notes of herbs and wildflowers on the nose and oak and smoke on
the palate. The tannins are reigned in, the wine is light on its feet, but the finish lacks intensity and
length..Reviewed August 4, 2008WINERY&nbsp»ARTICLE&nbsp»

2004 Littorai Mays Canyon Russian River Valley Chardonnay

14.2% alc.. Brian’s favorite wine! Lemon says, “Great Chardonnay is one of the rarest and most exciting wines in
the world.” By the way, Lemon also remarked in his recent newsletter that the current 2005 vintage
may be the greatest for Chardonnay he has ever seen in 24 years of making it - equal or better than
1986, 1994, and 1995 in California and 1982, 1986, and 1996 in Burgundy!
·Very Meursault-like.
Beautifully balanced with an appealing mineral and citrus aftertaste. No buttery oak onslaught here. A
charming wine that was drinking even better with more richness from the opened bottle eight hours later.Reviewed February 26, 2007WINERY&nbsp»ARTICLE&nbsp»
